If so, one function or the other is cheating.


That depends what you mean by cheating.  The justify_hours function
looks to see what answer justify_days would give, but does not
actually change the data.  I described this all earlier and I still
don't see why there is anything wrong with it.


The problem is that you can't determine "what answer justify_days would
give" without using the assumption "1 month == 30 days", which is an
assumption that justify_hours must not depend on.

Ahhh. So the fact that justify_days already makes the 1 month == 30 days assumption is ok in that function but can't be propagated to justify_hours.
